Seems like every game developer is jumping on to the 'Battle Royale' hype train and the 'Call of Duty' franchise is no exception to the rule. Activision unveiled the new iteration of 'Call of Duty: Black Ops 4', where the developers have essentially removed a campaign mode and replaced it with a Battle Royale mode.

The gaming company has not detailed much about the new mode, so we don't know as of now whether it will supper 100 players like Fornite and PUBG, or how the actual gameplay looks like. The new mode is called “Blackout” and 'Call of Duty' boss Robert Kostich told Gamespot that the studio wanted to pursue this new mode to give fans a new way to experience the franchise.

"Blackout just emerged as something that was passionately what the development team wanted to do and bring a new kind of experience to Call of Duty fans," he said. "And I think it's one that Black Ops is uniquely positioned to do with the rich history of Black Ops.”

We all know 'Call of Duty' is a fast-paced first-person shooter that incorporates crazy skill streaks and weapons that has made the game very addictive for fans. It will be a little different from 'Fortnite' and 'PUBG' as the developer Treyarch says it wanted to create a battle royale mode "the Black Ops way.”

The map in 'Blackout' is probably the biggest the developer has ever created and some of its locations are taken directly from previous games. The mode will also incorporate a range of gadgets such as the RC car, land, sea and air vehicles. Traditionally, in a 'Battle Royale' game, vehicles are used for transportation purposes only, whereas in 'Call of Duty' we can expect it to be used among other players.

The incorporation of gadgets and deadly vehicles will be a far cry in terms of gameplay from other 'Battle Royale' games such as 'Fortnite'. In fact, we feel the game may just be a souped-up version of the two, where 'Blackout' seems more like a fast-paced, action-packed version of 'PUBG'. We still don't know how many players can play it once and it all depends on that, so you may want to take this with a pinch of salt.
